Located in western Wyoming, the Bridger-Teton National Forest with its 3.4 million acres, is the second largest National Forest outside of Alaska. Included are more than 1.2 million acres of wilderness. Its crystal blue skies are punctuated by awesome mountain ranges which reach from 5,900 to over 13,000 feet. The highest point in Wyoming, Gannet Peak, is located in the Wind River Mountains. From these ranges, spring the headwaters of the Green, Snake, and Yellowstone Rivers. The forest is part of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, the largest remaining area of undeveloped lands in the continental United States. |
